2012 Mustang stalls

2012 Mustang stalls when rear seat passenger sits on drivers side.Believe it or not. When a rear seat passenger moves from the right side rear seat to the left side rear seat you can hear a high pitched buzzing and then in 5 to 10 seconds the engine stalls. Stay in the right side car runs fine for miles

Pulled the seat out. both sides have a bladder to sense when
there is weight in the seat. For some reason the drivers side has
a very sticky foil tape holding the bladder in place. The wiring
harness leading into the bladder has a sort of electrical tape
sleeve on the outside. Anywhere the electrical tape is not
covering the wires that touches the foil tape causes a tweeting in
the bladder and the engine dies.
I will add some insulation to the wires and have already
removed the foil tape. Just goes to show the power of duct tape!
I hear about so many issues of stalling Mustangs I hope others
read this and look towards these seat sensors for any issues.
